I think your main suppostition is flawed: Chaos is *not* random intermingling - remember that gods killed by chaos are *gone*, not distributed about the cosmos or randomly assimliated into the Chaos Borg or anything of that sort - its as if they never existed. Yes, there are some chaos things that are random interminglings, and some that are so solidly *one* thing that they have no room for other natures. Some chaos "gods" embrace one set of values (Malia and Disease frex), others are so chaotic that they can't be said to "embrace" anything.

Undead are neither Living nor Dead. Some are dead that have been brought back to life (Lead Cross quest anyone?), some are Living beings that have embraced death (Vampires). Personally, my Humakti would oppose those that *chose* undeath over unfortunate corpses brought back to unlife (though those should be destroyed simply to release their souls). Vampires and thier ilk should be eliminated so that they cannot spread their infection of Unlife.
